MLB and the NBA do well when the Yankees and Lakers are doing well. Like them or not they draw attention and but butts in seats. Fans love to cheer or jeer them. When those teams are down it has been proven to actually be shown as less healthy periods for the respective sport. It doesn't mean more fans in the stands at small market teams.It seems each industry is best served by a clear market leader that others can then thrive off of. I will assume RPGs are no different. A decline in D&D isn't going to mean an increase in players for all the small, independent titles. A decline in D&D playing is going to mean a decline in people role-playing. Period.</blockquote>
